Slowly reconstructing
Deconstructing
I will get attached, like a parasite such as a flea, to a dog such as a collie. I will suck all the blood & tolerance out of you, leaving you lifeless & forever annoyed. I will love you more than a fat kid loves oreo cookies, the kind that come in the little baggies that you can eat anywhere. He'll soon grow old and die of a heart attack. I travel into Wonderland often, sometimes it's the only time I feel real, because on the Earth, I am only a tiny sail boat in a stormy sea. So I prefer space where everything is care-free. I don't dare travel alone. I am an irritating fly, I keep coming back. I don't have a soul, it was taken by a bleach blonde magnet. Dancing takes up empty space that no single person knows what to do with. I will sing loud, but not as loud as the music you are listening to. It will pierce your ears like a needle. You'll run away, most likely. If you happen to stick around, your ears will grow numb to the taste. I am afraid of myself, for my brain is a nasty place of torture and failure. Pizza and the man who ate it get put into an endless electric chair. I like it when I can see the inner workings of my arms, every ligiment, every bone. What nourishes me destroys me. I won't throw objects, such as a pencil sharpener, at you in a lava-flow of rage, I'll only tell you to drop them on me, because it's always my fault. I'm a never-ending fountain of emotion. I don't only cry rivers, I cry roads, mountains, ponds and trees, I cry the whole world, it lies in a pathetic puddle at my feet. You're so microscopic, you'll drown. Enjoying life is important because it almost keeps me sane. I don't trust squirming maggots that dance around me, steal my money, then leave me to rot. I believe in forever, I believe in loathing the way my mind works, & I believe in you.
I love Los Angeles. I love Hollywood. They're beautiful. Everybody's plastic, but I love plastic. I want to be plastic.
-Andy Warhol
